Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

Win8 Metro support

Any chance of try to add skritter.com to the list of sites that are supported by IE10 in metro mode? This way you dont even need a special app for Win8 and pen support there is great!

The Skritter team was working on making this happen through a third party but it seems that Microsoft beat them to the punch with this support document that was released yesterday and updated today. It clearly outlines how to request to add their site to the whitelist.

So it looks like we will be able to Skritter with native Ink support. I read it is a much better experience than using a stylus on a capacitive screen ("like writing on paper"). Can anyone confirm this? This would actually make me consider to do away with the iPhone and purchase a Surface instead.

Ugh, that's such a long list of steps for us to take to get the compatibility view list request in. I guess I need to rustle up a Windows box and install Windows 8 preview on it.

@nick Seems easier than writing an application...
@范博涵 I have been using it on a Samsung tablet (pretty old one which is supposed to run Win7) and its really great!
